⚔️Legends of the Longsword - Book 2 Review⚔️

Book 2 of The Legends of Ansu series is a continuation of Gray Wolf. It follows Corin an Fol as he strives to rescue Nalissa from her villainous captors.

Between J. W. Webb’s writing and Andrew McDermott’s narration, they pair perfectly to paint the story which allows the reader/listener to be transported to each scene and feel as if they are living the fantasy themselves.

One of the better books for me

This is the fourth book I’ve read/listened to by this author and I would listen to another. ??
We meet a new character, Higgins. He becomes Corin’s alley/nemesis. Their relationship is complicated. As Corin tries to retrieve Nalissa (his boss’ daughter) he learns there is a very dangerous assassin involved. And eventually he runs into someone he thought he’d never see again. Good thing too, because they often save his bacon. There is more behind these events than any of them can imagine.
The gods involvement is more cohesive in this book. Prior to this I’ve found it awkward and almost unnecessary.

This is the fourth book I’ve listened to by this narrator ( Andrew McDermott ). He has great character voices (both male and female) and does well performing the book instead of just reading and that compensates for the distracting start-stop narration style (however I am getting used to it).

There are no explicit sex scenes, there is plenty of violence but not overly gory. There is mild, occasional swearing.

I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and voluntarily left this unbiased review.

Corin an Fol’s mercenary wild ride

This the 2nd book in a series about Corin an Fol, former soldier, now mercenary. This book is better at developing the characters and settings. You easily feel as if you were there. Corin is a sort of good/bad guy and the main character. Hagen on the other hand is just a bad guy that is fessed out well and you grow to hate. It’s a great fast moving adventure that leaves you wanting more!
The author’s, J. W. Webb, style is perfectly matched with the narrator, Andrew McDermott. He is Corin an Fol. I highly recommend this book and series!

Great continuation of the series

I really enjoyed listening to this book. As I've mentioned before, anything Andrew McDermott narrates is a book I'll listen to! This story fortunately can stand on its own as well! The characters are interesting and well developed with room for growth in the future stories, as this is book 2 I'm sure there will be many more to enjoy. The story world is detailed and interesting. The book is well written and I recommend it for sword and sorcery or fantasy fans! I'm looking forward to the rest of the series!

Great storytelling and charactes

This was a wonderfully written book for fans of swordplay and epic journeys. Corin, the main character, develops and grows a lot throughout the book, which was fun to see. The adventure was very exciting and I was never bored! I was given this book in exchange for an honest review.

Corin Corin Corin

I absolutely cannot wait for the next book. There's a kidnapping, betrayal, forgiveness, assassin, and daring rescue what is not to like. Another flawless job by the narrator!

Good read, looks to be a good series

Legends of the Longsword: A Legends of Ansu fantasy (Mercenary Book 2), my second read from author J.W. Webb an author I’d wanted to read since I got Gol: A Legends of Ansu Fantasy #1: Dawn of Legends, back in January of 2017. I got the Kindle edition of this book in January of this year & I was given an Audible copy of this book this month & am voluntarily reviewing. Since I own both the Audible & Kindle editions I was able to follow along while being read to. Andrew McDermott’s narration added to the book's enjoyment. (RIP Marley January 20, 2014 - July 24, 2018).
